Pyeongtaek Godeok District Plan Revised to 68,698 Homes

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has approved the 20th revision of the development plan and the 18th revision of the implementation plan for the Godeok Internationalization Plan District housing-site development project in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, raising the planned number of homes from 61,285 to 68,698 and the accommodated population from 147,221 to 154,836. The approval was published on 12 October 2026 in the Official Gazette (관보) No. 21337 as Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Notice No. 2026-534. The same notice publishes the topographic maps required under the Framework Act on Land Use Regulation.

The revision rests on Articles 21, 22 and 23 of the Special Act on Support for Pyeongtaek City and Others Following the Relocation of United States Forces Korea Bases and Articles 3, 7, 8 and 9 of the Housing Site Development Promotion Act. The district keeps its stated purpose — building an internationalization hub to promote international exchange and attract foreign investment, and fostering a metropolitan centre in the southern capital region — and its unchanged area of 13,358,614.4 square metres in Godeok-dong and Godeok-myeon, Pyeongtaek.

Four public developers remain in charge, with their representatives as listed in the notice:

Gyeonggi Province — Chu Mi-ae
Korea Land and Housing Corporation — Lee Seong-hun
Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Development Corporation — Kim Yong-jin
Pyeongtaek Urban Development Corporation — Han Byeong-su

Compensation and public access

Attached list 1 sets out the parcels to be expropriated or used, for phase 3-3 only, with owners including the Korea Land and Housing Corporation, state land held by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Ministry of Economy and Finance, Gyeonggi Province, Pyeongtaek City, the Korea Electric Power Corporation and the Gyeonggi Province Urban Development Corporation, alongside private owners.
Where an interested party’s address or residence is unknown, documents are served by public notice under Article 21(2) of the Housing Site Development Promotion Act.
Topographic maps are viewable at the land information portal 토지이음 (eum.go.kr); related documents are on public display at the Gyeonggi Province land development division (031-8008-3246), the Pyeongtaek City urban development division (031-8024-4052), the Korea Land and Housing Corporation new-town business office (055-922-3534) and Pyeongtaek business headquarters (031-612-8898), the Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Development Corporation Dongtan-Godeok department (031-220-3591) and the Pyeongtaek Urban Development Corporation Godeok project team (031-663-4508).

The change adds more than 7,400 homes and 7,600 residents to what is one of the largest housing-site districts in the southern capital region, and it redraws the land-use, road, school and parking figures that future residents, landowners and Pyeongtaek citizens will live with. Because the notice also fixes the parcels to be taken in the final phase, owners in Godeok-dong and Haichang-ri should check the attached lists and the display points before the 2027 completion date.
